Putin: So about those weapons
Kim: Yes we would love more weapons
Putin: awkward silence…
Honestly, that’s the way I thought this headline was going
Nothing says desperation like going to a country even more sanctioned to buy some weapons.
Asking for help from the worlds most garbage country, an absolute sign things are going well.
…but do we have a missile powerful enough to take out a target at both ends of Putin’s table?
I heard drones are all the rage now.
The best thing about buying weapons from north Korea is all the artillery pieces come with oxen for maximum battlefield mobility.
But they only shoot south, Russian can’t use those

If they were smart, food and fuel.
Since they’re NK, probably personal enrichment for Kim, and maybe some cold war era nukes.
Money, probably.

Which currency?
Rubles are pretty useless at the moment, and for the foreseeable future.
I’m guessing yuan could work for both of them?
North Korea has one of the largest stockpiles of artillery shells in the world.
I’m curious how well preserved those shells are. Russia itself was sending shells to the front that were non-functional because of poor storage. I wonder if North Korea did a better job of preservation.

There has also been a history of North Korea screwing over Russia with regards to arms. Recently North Korea hacked Russia to steal hypersonic missile designs and data. Even if the overall percentage of ruined shells is lower, North Korea could choose to send ALL of the ruined ones to Russia with a number good shells, and charge Russia as though all of them are good.

could get 2 of them done for the price of one?
North Korea’s biggest sin is surviving a genocidial war against them by the US, the West simply cannot forgive such transgressions.
Jesus Robert Christ, what other amazing historical tidbits do you have rattling around up there? This is fascinating as hell!
I suppose you support killing millions of Koreans and bombing 70% of Pyongyang? Afterwards sanctioning the country to hell?

Yes please lets do that. Which system has twice the higher birth rates? Which system has more than twice larger military? Which system is self-sufficient? Which system has preserved their national culture and hasn’t degenerated into little USA? Which system survived a genocidial war and being sanctioned by almost the entire world?
The two Koreas are a perfect example indeed, the South is for the degenerate liberals who only care about their access to fast food and porn, while the North is for patriots that wish to preserve their unique culture and way of life.

I agree, just end the military occupation by the US first.

Apparently the sanctions that started in 2006 erased 53 years of progress.

Why are you lying?
You said sanctioned by the West, not the US. The West didn’t start sanctions until 2006. The US wasn’t a primary trading partner of any eastern bloc county during the cold war so it wouldn’t have made a difference.
I believe that you have it backwards. North Korea, backed by China and with the approval and arming by the USSR, invaded South Korea. South Korea remains independent today because it was defended by the UN. The North’s allies promised to rebuild the North after the war and poured billions of roubles into the country. They remained dependent on the eastern bloc countries until the USSR fell and China opened up to the West. The North’s economy fell apart in the 1990’s after they were no longer propped up by others. The US provided $600 million in aid for food and energy starting in 1995. Sanctions against North Korea did not start until 2006.

North Korea invaded South Korea as much as revolutionary Americans “invaded” loyalist Americans.
North Korea indeed did have some troubles in the 1990s, which is to be expected when one is cut off from all support, yet they pulled through well and are now self-sufficient. One can’t say the same about South Korea with its worsening living conditions and plummeting birth rates, and this is with Western support.
From Wikipedia:
After failed attempts of negotiations on unification, North Korean army (Korean People’s Army or KPA) forces crossed the border and drove into South Korea on 25 June 1950.
Sounds way more like Russia invading Ukraine.
Was the American revolution an “invasion” against the english? Or the French revolution an “invasion” against the monarchists?
Cant you just go to Lemmygrad or Hexbear and cry there?
🥱
Imagine having a discussion with some that disagrees with you.
Look at Cuba, to see how much the US doesn’t play fair with communist nations.
